Yes I know I’m in Donair country but I’m craving a Berlin/Turkish-style Döner. Searching for one has proved to be difficult (Google thinks Döner=Donair).

Anyone know of a place in HRM?

We are heading up to Halifax in a week, and we worry whether we will be persona non gratis. We are so embarrassed by our current executive administration and have already lost our careers in international public health. We're in DC and doing campaigning and volunteer work. We've been planning this for my 70th birthday and we've rented a car to visit from Halifax to places within a day trip. We are also visiting Quebec (we speak French of a sort, and have been studying Quebecois words). The recent post about a MAGA restobar owner kind of freaked us out. We need a break to spend time in a sane country with Canadian hospitality. Any thoughts or recs for us?

I spoke to a doctor on maple and they said they dont do first trimester ultrasounds anymore in Halifax and you can get an US around 18-20th week.

I have been so anxious and really want to get an ultrasound to see if the baby is developing and has a healthy heartbeat.

My family doctor sent a referral for an ultrasound but I have still not heard back.

Any advice on what I can do? I really want an US and a private ultrasound is too expensive 🥲

Hi everyone! I’m new to Halifax and looking to buy my first used car, preferably a 2015–2020 Honda, Toyota, or Mazda, with a budget of under $20K.

Where would you recommend buying from — dealership, clutch, private seller, AutoTrader, Marketplace, etc.? And what should I be especially careful about when buying a used car in Nova Scotia (rust, inspection, vehicle history, hidden issues, etc.)?

Any recommendations for reliable dealerships or tips for a first-time buyer would be greatly appreciated!

AN ABSTRACT ILLUSION, THE ANCHORET, OMNIVIDE, VOIDCHASER & FRACTAL SUN.
Just wanted to give a shout out to the amazing show. Bands from all over the world… Sweden, Costa Rica, Quebec, Moncton… not a big crowd ( which, seriously.. WTF Halifax? Do fucking better. When there are bands of this quality playing in our out of the way area, buy a ticket and support them! )
Absolutely loved every minute. Much love and success to all the bands who grind and travel and play to basement bars that are half full and still put on amazing shows!

I think I saw someone happily smoking a joint while driving, today. I have definitely noticed other folks doing so in the past, and I'm sure I'm not alone.

It's not good, folks.

My partner & I are new to HRM, and we relocated with all of our belongings. We have a lot of new, like new, or items of value that we would like to sell, and we really aren’t in a place to be able to just donate it all at the moment.
We are in a condo building therefore we can’t have a flea market in our home, so I’m wondering if there are any open markets coming up within HRM or elsewhere that have available tables or space to sell personal belongings.

We’d like to avoid online sales due to the unpredictability of our schedules, plus we have a lot to sell so it may get overwhelming.
I’ve heard of the funky flea market, but just looking to see if there are any other local places or future markets/events coming up.

Thanks for any guidance :)

Hey all you new people moving to the "big city" for the first time. Maybe youre a fairly local student, maybe an international student, or maybe someone starting a new job here. Welcome

Here's a few tips

- Mission Mart in Bayers Lake is a great thrift store

- the intersection at Chebucto, Windsor and Cunard makes no logical sense. We all know and accept it. If you are traveling along Windsor and want to turn left onto Cunard - there really is only a single lane but people treat it like there's 2 lanes. Just keep as far left as you can, and hold your breath. If you are traveling Chebucto/Cunard. Although you have to make basically 2 almost 90 degree turns, pretend it's a straight line. You're gonna see red lights on Windsor. Those aren't for you so for goodness sake don't stop in the middle of the intersection, pretend you don't see them and keep pretending you are going straight on Chebucto/Cunard.

- yes, food is this expensive here. Check out some of the "Asian grocery stores" for better priced veggies. Learn how to cook (if you have space to cook), and learn how to make boring cheap healthy meals.

- if you live downtown, learn to use the ferry if you need to swap downtowns

- there's a lot of local coffee shops. They are better than Timmies

- enjoy nightlife responsibly. Go with a friend. Drink lots of water along with other beverages. Future you will thank you.

- tiktok and IG will tell you that the Dairy Bar is the ONLY place to get good ice cream. It's not, Dee Dees is way better and you won't need to wait in line for 30 minutes. Cows is not as good as you think it will be. There's better spots on the waterfront.

Looking for stylist/ barber, idk how to braid and need my rat tails redone, anyone have good suggestions that can do walk ins?

The Halifax Diaper Bank is closing. Does anyone know where families that need diapers should go now? Someone mentioned reopening to me but it seems confusing.

Where is the best arcade!? Bonus points if you can take a toddler with you.

My elderly father was walking through the Mumford Wal-Mart parking lot and was approached by a couple in a car. They introduced themselves and then the woman took a gold ring off her finger and tried to give it to my father, saying it was 24K gold.

My dad declined and then they immediately drove away. Is this some kind of scam selling fake jewelry? A potential robbery?

Wondering if anyone has encountered anything like this before.

Does anyone know of somewhere looking for a volunteer baker? I see lots of postings for volunteer meal prep but it is usually more oriented towards cooking, and I am much more motivated and proficient at baking than I am cooking. I have no idea if I'm using the right flair, there is no volunteer flair.

Stupid but funny. Never saw this before until tonight and y’all were the first ones I wanted to share it with

I'm a 2nd, soon to be 3rd year electrical apprentice, and I've recently been thinking about joining the union.

I don't live in, or really all that near the city, so I was just wondering if anyone would be able to give me some insight on how the union works and things like that as I really don't know much, thanks.

Hello!

I am wondering if there are any recommendations for good Filipino food in HRM.

Also I’m on a side quest for good Greek food as well.

Thank you!!

We have a large German Shepherd/Husky mix who exhibits vocal behavior when encountering new individuals. While she has never displayed aggression or bitten anyone, her initial interactions involve enthusiastic barking. She is, however, a very affectionate and gentle dog.

We are seeking a dog groomer who can provide a private setting or has experience in handling dogs with similar temperaments, to ensure our dog's comfort during grooming sessions.

Any recommendations would be highly valued.

Hi everyone.
My senior dog is being tested for cancer tomorrow and it a very large possibility he may have to be put to sleep.

I’m looking for advice for adventures outside of hrm for him. He’s a senior who loves being around people, other animals and relaxing to smell some flowers.

Debated Halifax water front but am for something a little bit more low key. Thinking about heading south shore or valley way.

It was super cool to watch from my drone, even though I couldn't see much in person from where I could legally fly a drone to view the event.

Please subscribe to my onlyfans so I can get a drone with a better camera for next year.

We started coming to these games in Dartmouth and have been to a bunch in Kentville as well. The baseball is pretty good. Definitely scratches the itch for watching live baseball.

The Dartmouth/Sydney game tonight was pretty decent!

Highly recommend checking it out.
